5150 Combo Tone Demo

This is some noodling to demonstrate the tone I get with my Wolfgang, Axis, and my 5150 Combo. The amp has been tubed with Eurotubes. My playing is sloppy because I tense up a little on camera.

Ok, that's it! I'm putting in my order to Eurotubes for a tube kit for my 5150 Combo. Yours just sounds AWESOME! Which set of tubes did you get exactly? I was looking at the high gain set (I play a lot of de-tuned metal stuff)

Oh, and HOW are you getting that much Reverb out of your Combo? Are you running a Reverb pedal?

These are the standard 5150 combo re-tube kit. They are $84.50. I can't remember what my reverb setting is. It varies depending on the room. I am running a cheap DOD digital delay that I have had for 16 or 17 years.

Nice tone man. I own a Peavey 5150ii head & instead of replacing the stock tubes, I used 4x12 cabinets loaded with 75 watt sheffields (nstead of the stock 30watt sheffields that the 5150s come with) and because of the increased headroom, it seemed to make the amp's gain less abrasive & much more versatile!

Thanks!

I'm looking to get this amp off of craigslist for about $400.

I play rock and roll - metal.

And a fair amount of clean stuff.

Any suggestions on the best tone? Should I switch the tubes as opposed to stock?

@stevie5150 Is that a Ernie ball Music man Van Halen model or just an Axis?

[StringSlinger26]

Does your reverb work alright??? I just got this combo used today and no matter how much i turn up the reverb it isnt there.

does it sound good with the stock tubes

@suzuki15 when you have an amp with annoying ly crisp highs like saaaay a fender champ or any cheamp combo amp you mjay want to make your tone a little more muddy to not be so bright
